WALES v S. AFRICA rugby

Wales national rugby team plays its first Test match against a side other than the US Eagles in the US. Their tour opener in Washington will be the first rugby match between top-tier national teams to be staged in the US capital.

The Washington Welsh have started filling out Section 234 ($92.50) and Sec 450 ($67.50). Some adjoining sections available. Let's pack the house with red shirts, get together for a day to remember, and give our boys the love and support they deserve! Let's build the red wall! #TOGETHERSTRONGER

Wales coach Gatland said: “We are really pleased to add a third fixture to our summer tour schedule and we hope it will be another great test match between ourselves and the Springboks.

“This summer is a vital period for us as we continue the countdown to the Rugby World Cup in 2019 and another fixture helps us along the way in our preparation and enables us to test ourselves further.

“It will be a great way to start the summer tour before we head further south to Argentina later in the month.”
